Chris, it's the American media. The only value that they know is the perceived value of thier advertising value. If the news is boring, then no one pays for the ad-slots during the news. Car chases that might end in a gunfight or a schoolbus being rearended aren't boring. Therefore, you show more of them, and people will watch, waiting for another one, and see the newly price hiked ads in the process. <br><br>Gotta love the honsety and integrity of the news media, with thier fair and unbiased reporting.
